The conâ€" cert came to radio fans through a hookâ€"up which embraced stations stations CKCR, Waterloo; CKNC, Toronto, and CJGC, London. On Saturday night Waterloo‘s new Highway Between St. Jacobs At last definite word has been reâ€"| ceived to the effect that the Elmiraâ€" Kitchener highway will be improved. The County Council has decided to call for tenders immediately. 'nnel Road and Bridge Committee made an inspection of the highway, especially. between St. Jacobs and the C.N.R. railway crossing about two miles south of Elmira. The estimated cost of the improvement is $15,000.00, and includes widening the road on each side by two feet and resurfacing of the present pavement which is in the most delapidated condition. ‘Asphait will be laid same as the first stretch of the highway from Waterloo. The construction gang will doubtless reâ€" pair other bad spots along the entire Felicitations from Premiér King No mention was made about the Bt. Jacob‘s Hill which is in the worst possible condition, but it is hoped the <ommittee â€"will attend to it as well. Saturday morning one load of gravel was dumped on the hill near the top where the cement surface ends and helped to fill a few bad holes. Motorists haying occasion to use the Elmira highway will be greatly pleased that much needed improve ments on the highway will be started and Elmira to be Reconâ€" structed and Widened.

It is entirely likely that the current "less than average" crop will yield somewhat more satisâ€" factory prices to the producers, lining to the short crop cloud; but the loss of something in the neighâ€" borhood of 4,000,000 tons of grain haulage is something which Canaâ€" dian rail executives are already visualizing. Then, too, Alberta‘s harvester reâ€" quirements are set around 2,500 men, and a further 7,500 will be sufficient to care for the harvester needs of Saskatchewa@n and Manitoba.
